Many of these refer to the application of a strong magnet clamped to the fuel line of the car. Apparently, this is something to do ... Read the complete review

Right, come on, own up. Are you one of the car drivers with a dead magic tree hanging from your car mirror that hasn't smelled of anything since 1989? I knew it. No, it doesn't last forever, you do have to throw it away and buy a new one. Come on now, they're only a couple of quid! I have been so bored by my morning ... Read the complete review

Can a budget fit yourself reversing sensor kit costing less than a 1/10th of factory fit options do the same?

Every car owner that doesn't have the luxury of owning a garage, or even those those of you that have a garage that tends to accumulate junk rather than housing a car overnight (me included!), should consider buying a frost protector for their car for the impending winter months.

Unfortunately they were about £50 which was more than I wanted to pay. Instead I bought a polypropylene liner from Halfords for about £8. Its just about ... Read the complete review
